I have an anime profile pic because it makes me better at video games

It can also make you a better programmer and/or hacker. Bonus points if you wear cat ears on a daily basis.

Gotta keep the blood out of your legs and up in the brain, it's just science

I build credibility by saying smart shit and occasionally citing sources. But an anime character to encourace others to look it up and go on that deep dive is not a terrible idea.

I have a flying fist as a profile pic because I am a wizard. I am credible.

Why not both?

I'd be screaming if I was inside you, too

"LEMME OUT!!!"

I've seen that video

[–] DrPop@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I have an anime profile pic because I have dismorphia( is that right).

[–] uriel238@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 10 months ago

There are subtle differences between dymophia (body dysmorphic disorder) and morphological dysphoria, but Wikipedia thinks they're the same.

Ask your psychiatrist which diagnosis is right for you.

I have a matte black profile pic, because much like the rest of Generation X, I'm kinda rooting for "The Nothing" in The Neverending Story
